WHAT THEY SAY.

W. Z. Burton-I shall be sorry to see
the entire Reform school tract pass into
the hands of private parties. AT least
ten acres facing on Marshall avenue
should be retained by the state for the
site of the new capitol. Before the
state is ready to build first-class CAPT
tol building this location will be SO
thoroughly built up as to be regarded
quite central enough for any one. 1t
would be poor policy to sell it now and
pay tenfOld as much as would be de-
rived from sale at present prices in five
years for no better location.

The Methodist quarterly meeting was held
at Roads the 2Sth and 29ih inst, and was
CHARACTERISTIC with the usual large and very
quiet attendance. Rev. Batten, p. E., was
on hand and delivered some very interesting
tliseourses.
The meeting we spoke of In our last at
Cedar Grove closed, after continuance of
four weeks, with good results. Quite a large

Oats are good and commenced beading.
